Jingyi
Yang

Jingyi Yang is a textile artist and designer from Baotou, Inner Mongolia, currently completing her MFA in Textiles at Parsons School of Design, The New School. Rooted in both urban and nomadic cultures, her practice explores themes of spatial distance, cultural memory, and emotional resonance through weaving, biomaterials, and installation. Her concentration is to utilize natural materials, like algae and coffee grind, to create biodegradable textile work. Drawing from proxemics theory and traditional Mongolian symbolism, Jingyi constructs tactile narratives that meditate on transformation, loss, and belonging.
